Summary

Weigel‹s ›Gebetbuch‹ (Book of Prayers), which combines the influence of the Reformation (Martin Luther) with concepts of German medieval mysticism (Meister Eckhart, Johannes Tauler, ›Theologia deutsch‹), has been reproduced here for the first time using a handwritten manuscript transmission. Divided into three parts, it contains detailed instructions for prayer, a study of how Adam and Christ are in us and an interpretation of the Lord‹s Prayer. By including the first part in Johann Arndt‹s ›Vier Bücher vom wahren Christentum‹ (Four Books on True Christianity), Weigel produced his most effective devotional work and made a vital contribution to internalizing prayer in the history of Protestant piety.
